Forged in War
The Naval-Industrial Complex and American Submarine Construction, 1940-1961
Weir, G.E.: 1993 USA, hardcover with dust jacket, 314 pages, illustrated. Gary E. Weir analyzes how the collaboration between the U.S. Navy, industry, and scientific communities during World War II and the early Cold War led to the creation of a powerful "naval-industrial complex" that transformed submarine construction. With much information about the submarines. Weir demonstrates that this wartime blend of resources and expertise not only enabled rapid innovation and production of submarines but also reshaped the relationship between the military and private industry in the United States.
